The Martin Brook Ligertwood Sunburst 000-28 blends the timeless voice of a triple-O auditorium body with elegant, artist-inspired details. Built with a dovetail neck joint for optimal resonance, this model features a Sitka spruce top treated with Martins Vintage Tone System for a played-in warmth and responsiveness. The East Indian rosewood back and sides bring rich overtones and balanced projection, while scalloped X-bracing with 5/16″ spruce braces ensures a lively, dynamic response. Abalone multi-stripe rosette and European flamed maple binding elevate the visual appeal, creating an instrument that is as striking to behold as it is to play. The select hardwood neck is carved in a comfortable modified V profile with a standard taper, paired with an ebony fingerboard adorned with diamond and square abalone inlays. At the 20th fret, Brooke Ligertwoods signature serves as both an artistic touch and a mark of collaboration. The ebony modern belly bridge with a compensated bone saddle offers precise intonation, and nickel open-gear tuners with chrome buttons provide smooth, stable tuning. A tortoise-pattern pickguard and flamed maple heelcap complement the instruments refined style. With its 24.9″ scale length, 1 11/16″ nut width, and exquisite balance of tonewoods, this model delivers exceptional comfort for both fingerstyle and flatpicking. Finished in gloss on the body with a satin neck, it projects with clarity, warmth, and a controlled resonance that suits both studio work and live performance. The Brook Ligertwood 000-28 isin excellent to like-new condition, with only the slightest of player pick scratches on the soundboard of the instrument. It comeshoused in a Martin 533 hardshell case.
